The Carpenters - (They Long To Be) Close To You
On the day that you were born
The angels got together and decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
Of golden starlight in your eyes of blue
Me and my mom’s bedtime song since I was little, love you forever.
Why don’t you write me? - Simon & Garfunkel

There ain’t much future for a man who works the sea
But there ain’t no island left for islanders like me

Alone Again (Naturally) - Gilbert O’Sullivan (1972)
In a little while from now
If I’m not feeling any less sour
I promised myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top
Will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to who-
Ever what it’s like when you’re shattered
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
Where people saying,
“My God that’s tough, she stood him up!
No point in us remaining.
We may as well go home.”
As I did on my own,
Alone again, naturallyTo think that only yesterday,
I was cheerful, bright and gay,
Looking forward to, but who wouldn’t do,
The role I was about to play
But as if to knock me down,
Reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch,
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt,
Talk about God and His mercy
For if He really does exist
Why did He desert me
In my hour of need?
I truly am indeed,
Alone again, naturallyIt seems to me that
There are more hearts
Broken in the world
That can’t be mended
Left unattended
What do we do? What do we do?Alone again, naturally
Now looking back over the years,
And what ever else that appears
I remember I cried when my father died
Never wishing to hide the tears
And at sixty-five years old,
My mother, God rest her soul,
Couldn’t understand, why the only man
She had ever loved had been taken
Leaving her to start with a heart
So badly broken
Despite encouragement from me
No words were ever spoken
And when she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally
